DOG LOVER

Pet care experience

I have been a dog sitter for many friends throughout the years for both puppies and adult dogs. I love dogs and hope to have my own once I move Into a bigger place. I enjoy walking and running on my free time and would love to add a dog or two to my walks.

Maria did a great job taking care of my dog while I was out of town and I wouldn't hesitate to have her back! She left my apartment even cleaner than I left it and sent frequent updates.

Maria is great with Sushi. We are one of her repeat clients for the last couple of months and one of the things that we appreciate about her is that she does engage with your pet and ensures they get the mental enrichment they need while you’re away from home. And she’s very communicative with us and updates us on Sushi’s care. We highly recommend her and would definitely rebook her in the future!

Maria is wonderful with our dog Sushi. She is very communicative and very understanding (not to mention, patient) when taking care of her puppy needs. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a puppy sitter and rebook her again. Thank you! :)

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or any behaviors I should be aware of. Let me know their personality type if possible so I know how to better engage with them.

A typical day

take long walks in the neighborhood or explore the nearest hiking trails or parks. I do my morning runs at a dog friendly paved trail and my evening walks at another dog friendly trail that I can bring them to for daily exercise. I can also play fetch or tug of war whichever they prefer lol

I do have a full time job but mostly work from home with the exception of some Wednesday evenings. I have plenty of time to walk dogs or stop by to play, let them out on the yard to spend some time with them during the week. My schedule is fully open on weekends unless they are blocked off on my calendar for special occasions.
